Chapter 376 Immortal Martial Arts
"arrive?"

Shen Qing looked up and saw huge pillars made entirely of wish beads standing in front of him in the distance. Each pillar was as thick as two people could hug, and was inlaid with fluorescent gems that released light, making the fifth floor bright.

The space on the fifth floor was originally small, and with the addition of these huge pillars it seemed even more cramped.

In this cramped space, many members of the Ji family were sitting cross-legged.

Some people held a yellowed volume of martial arts, immersed in it body and mind, forgetting to eat and sleep, so much so that their fingers could not help but gesture.

There are also some people who sit still like sculptures, with faint circles of spiritual energy surrounding them.

Ji Bo stretched out his hand and called out, "Master Shen, please."

Shen Qing bowed and walked forward first.

When he walked into the area where the giant pillars were arched, he suddenly felt a sense of clarity and refreshment, as if all the pores in his body were opening up.

This is the result of the gathering of spiritual energy.

Shen Qing sensed it carefully and found that the spiritual energy here was several times richer than outside. He was shocked.

Ji Bochu seemed to have noticed something unusual about Shen Qing, and said with a smile, "Have you discovered something different here?"

"Is this the spiritual eye that the adults mentioned?"

Ji Bochu nodded and said, "The entire fifth floor is bounded by these stone pillars, gathering spiritual essence and forming spiritual eyes. Practicing here is twice as effective with half the effort. Even many Ji family disciples may not have the opportunity to come here. You are lucky to have obtained His Majesty's Qiwen Cuiying Order. Otherwise, you can only go to the third floor at most and cannot go any deeper."

Shen Qing was secretly surprised. He remembered that he had never shown the Qiwen Cuiying Order to Ji Bo, but the other party could sense it directly.

His spiritual power is very strong.

Ji Bochu continued to point at the area around the spiritual eye and said, "Take a look at these."

Shen Qing looked in the direction he pointed and found several mahogany cabinets placed in an orderly manner.

On the top of each cabinet, there is a treasure on display.

There are jade boxes as warm as water, weapons with a cold glow, and small and exquisite jade bottles, to name a few.

"The nine jade boxes here contain the knowledge of immortal martial arts. Many of them are relics from ancient times and are unfathomable. The weapons are sealed magic weapons. As for the jade bottles, they contain supreme precious medicines such as Dragon Roar and Tiger Roar Pills and Creation Pills. They are displayed here to nourish the spiritual energy."

"To be frank, any one of these will cause a stir if leaked out." Ji Bo said proudly, "You have the Qi Wen Cui Ying Order on you. According to the rules, you can read any of these martial arts. As for the others, you can't touch them."

"I understand." Shen Qing looked around the jade box and said, "How are these skills different from ordinary martial arts?"

Ji Bochu said seriously: "Every technique here is a royal technique. As long as you practice it seriously, martial artists with decent talent will gain something and have a chance to get a glimpse of the path to immortality."

Immortality?

Shen Qing's expression changed.

Once anything involves longevity, it is never simple.

His mood suddenly became excited.

But Shen Qing changed his mind and thought that this must be Ji Bochu's deliberate exaggeration.

Just imagine if these skills were really as powerful as he said, then every member of the Ji family would have been as powerful as a dragon long ago, instead of being like this now.

What's more, how could they be willing to show such a powerful martial art so generously to everyone?

Shen Qing asked himself if he could do that.

Just listen.

He quickly calmed down. However, although he thought so in his heart, Shen Qing did not show it. He pretended to be excited and said, "The Way of Immortality? Is there really a martial art that can lead to immortality?"

Ji Bochu was very pleased with Shen Qing's performance. He smiled and said, "These martial arts are at least a little bit immortal. Even if they can't make you immortal, if you cultivate to our level, living for a few hundred years is far better than other things."

Shen Qing bowed and said, "In that case, I am not very familiar with these techniques. Could you please recommend a suitable technique for me based on my situation?"

Ji Bochu waved his hand and said, "The choice of martial arts must ultimately be in line with one's individual character. If I do it for you, it may go against the principle of following one's innate talents and may even seem like an act of usurpation. It would be better if I could first summarize the essence of these martial arts for Master Shen, and then you can make your own choice."

"Thank you for your concern, Master Ji."

Ji Bochu smiled slightly and pointed: "Master Shen, look here."

Shen Qing followed the direction he pointed and looked carefully.

It is a jade box with small seal characters carved on the surface, full of ancient charm.

Ji Bo walked over and pressed it, and mysterious runes were flowing on it.

"This is the 'Nine Heavens Thunder God Art', which can harness the Nine Heavens Thunder. Each strike contains the power to destroy the heavens and the earth. It is the dream technique for warriors who pursue the ultimate power. Once you get on the right track in your practice, there will be no bottlenecks and the road ahead will be smooth."

Shen Qing's heart moved and he asked, "Are there any side effects?"

Ji Bochu sighed and said, "The strength of people's physical bodies today is far inferior to that of the ancients, so practicing this method may not be able to withstand the rolling thunder. Not many people in the royal family have tried it."

"I remember the last senior who tried this was struck to death by a bolt of lightning."

Shen Qing was speechless. He could actually die from practicing martial arts. He was really speechless.

"Master Ji, please read the next one."

"Okay." Then, Ji Bo turned his finger to the second book.

When their spiritual powers touched, a faint dragon roar could be heard: "This skill is called 'Azure Dragon Roaring to the Sky'. This skill contains the charm of Azure Dragon. Practitioners can borrow the power of Azure Dragon to roar to the sky. With Azure Dragon protecting their bodies, they are invulnerable to all kinds of attacks."

"If there is a disadvantage, this technique requires one to understand the will of Azure Dragon, which is very mysterious and difficult to master."

Seeing that Shen Qing did not react, Ji Bochu continued to walk to the side. The jade box above was emitting a faint golden light. He waved his sleeves lightly and said, "This martial art is the "Sacred Body Great Perfection Method". This method can forge a holy body. The physical strength is comparable to that of a magic weapon. It can be said that there is no defensive martial art in the world that can surpass it."

"Then if I practice this great method and then the Nine Heavens Thunder God Technique, can I achieve success in both?" Shen Qing asked curiously.

Ji Bochu shook his head and said, "The power of heaven and earth cannot be resisted by the flesh. No matter how strong your flesh is, when facing the mighty power of heaven, you can only surrender. After all, humans are humans, how can they fight against heaven?"

Shen Qing nodded to show his understanding.

Ji Bochu's fingers continued to move and landed on the fourth jade box, on which a pink lotus flower bloomed, extremely bright and beautiful.

"This method is called 'Sitting on the Lotus for Eternal Spring'. The so-called sitting on the lotus method is to use a woman or a man as a flesh lotus, and use the demon-subduing pestle to penetrate the flesh lotus every day to absorb the essence of the flesh lotus to strengthen the cultivation. The disadvantage is that the more advanced this method is, the more it requires the flesh lotus of a practitioner with a higher cultivation level to feed back, otherwise it will be difficult to break through."

Shen Qing heard it clearly and realized that this was a dual cultivation method, which was an unorthodox approach.

If he wants to practice, he has to find a woman in the Yuanshen realm to be his flesh lotus. He may not be able to find a few even if he searches the entire Great Zhou.

Ji Bochu naturally knew about it and quickly skipped over it: "This is the "Burning Heaven Art". This art can be used to cultivate one's own body, arouse the fire of heaven and earth, and burn all things. If you practice it to the extreme, you will be unmatched."

"The Wind and Thunder Escape Technique, this technique can control wind and thunder, and travel a thousand miles in an instant..."

"The Dao of Ten Thousand Soldiers..."

After Ji Bochu finished introducing them one by one, he looked at Shen Qing and said, "Which one do you want to learn, Lord Shen?"
